[QUOTE="_CY_, post: 1434281, member: 7629"] good question with a strange answer... the original P-60 LED replacement was developed on Candlepower Forums (CPF). naturally a real Surefire P-60 Bulb was used as a base or mule. a ton of engineering was put into a Surefire incandescent bulb. a robust and long live bulb coupled with shock system resulted in a product that was the best in the world. the modders at CPF used the reflector, etc to make the world's first P-60 drop-in using a three watt Luxeon LED emitter and single stage buck/boost circuit. then a group buy was put together for a small run of P-60 drop-in. from that first group buy... every Chinese mfg copied each other from that original design.... resulting in a new standard size P-60 drop-in. fast forward to today... from that initial CPF flashlight mod... an entire sub category of flashlights has spawn.
